Find the distance of the wave length and divide by 2.
Example: Wave length = 10 Half= 5
Hope this helps! I"m currently doing homework on hydrology!
Good Luck! (:
To get the wavelength of a wave simply divide the wavespeed with its frequency.
The wavelength of a wave is the distance from the crest to the next crest of a wave, usually measured in metres. A wavelength is not a unit.
A wavelength of 15 feet yields a base of about 7.5 feet. The wave base of a wave (the depth to which it moves water) is about 1/2 the wavelength.
Divided the wave's speed by its wavelength.
Tha wave base would be about 5 feet, as it is about 1/2 of the wavelength.
. . . reduces by half.

To get the wavelength of a wave simply divide the wavespeed with its frequency.
Wavelength = 1/frequency. If you double the frequency, the wavelength drops to half.
A deep-water wave.
IF a wave moving at a constant speed were to have it's wavelength doubled (Wavelength x 2), then the frequency of the wave would be half of what it originally was (Frequency / 2).
The zeros (nodal points) of a sinusoidal wave occur every half-wavelength of the sinusoidal wave.
Frequency (f)=Speed of the wave(v)/wavelength l
The first has half the wavelength of the second
wave length = wave speed divided by its frequency
speed = freq. X wavelength Hence frequency and wavelength are inversely related when the speed is same. So if the frequency is doubled, then wavelength becomes half of the initial length.
v=fλ where f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength
